Next, the short fiber reinforced C / C composite precursor is heated in an atmosphere of an inert gas such as nitrogen gas under pressure or restrained and fired to obtain a calcined body. The short fiber reinforced C / C composite precursor has a large back spring (rebound of the precursor containing fibers), and since the pitches serving as the binder do not melt below the melting temperature of the pitches, pressurization or If the binding is not performed, the carbon fibers and the pitches will not adhere to each other, and the shape of the precursor will be impaired in the process of heating and firing, making it difficult to produce a calcined body. In order to stably form the calcined body of this precursor, the polymerization components in the pitches are polymerized to develop the strength as a binder 400
Baking at a temperature of ℃ or more is required. Here, as a means for applying pressure or restraint, it is sufficient that it can withstand the firing temperature and can prevent the back spring of the precursor, and for example, a press for pressure, a steel plate frame for restraint, etc. can be used.

The firing temperature of this precursor is usually 40.
The temperature is 0 to 1,200 ° C, preferably 400 to 700 ° C. When the firing temperature is lower than 400 ° C., a large amount of pitch-derived volatile components remain in the obtained calcined body, and the apparatus is used in the subsequent step of heating and pressurizing at high temperature and high pressure. Since a large amount of volatile matter is introduced therein, there is a problem that economical furnace operation becomes difficult. Further, this firing is sufficient because impurities in pitches are sufficiently volatilized even at a temperature of 1,200 ° C or lower, and the firing temperature is 1,200 ° C.
Even if it is made higher, it is not much different from the case of firing at a temperature lower than that. The firing time of this precursor also depends on the weight of the precursor and is usually in the range of 1 to 10 hours, generally 1 to
Two hours is enough. The calcined body manufactured in this manner has a high porosity of about 20% or more, and does not reach a practical bulk density as it is.

When the heating temperature is less than 1,500 ° C. or the applied pressure is less than 50 kg / cm 2 , the heating and pressurizing treatment is not preferable because densification and low porosity are not promoted.

The fact that diffusion is effective for high density means that the calcined body is densified during heating and pressurization under high temperature and high pressure conditions, that is, the thickness of the calcined body is proportional to temperature, pressure and holding time. , And the contraction rate is dependent on the Arrhenius-type temperature dependence [contraction rate = K · EXP (−Q / RT):

Hot pressing the short fiber reinforced C / C composite precursor directly at 1,500 ° C. or higher
Volatile components in the pitches are accumulated in the heating and pressurizing furnace that performs heating and pressurizing under high temperature and high pressure conditions. Since the grounding resistance is reduced due to aggregation, heating becomes difficult and economical furnace operation cannot be performed. Further, since such a heating and pressurizing furnace is usually small in effective height, it is difficult to insert the short fiber reinforced C / C composite precursor having a large back spring into the heating and pressurizing furnace.

Example 3 Short fibrous carbon fibers (diameter 7 μm, length 12 mm) and crushing pitch (softening point 150 ° C., average particle size 20 μm) were uniformly mixed in water at a weight ratio of 1: 0.9. A short fiber reinforced C / C composite precursor having a bulk specific gravity of 0.1 in which short fiber carbon fibers and crushed pitch are uniformly dispersed by dispersing the slurry into a slurry using a wire mesh mold and obtaining the slurry is obtained. It was The precursor thus obtained was used, and the precursor was calcined under the same calcining conditions as in Example 1 except that the precursor was sandwiched in the thickness direction by a stainless steel plate, and tightened with bolts and nuts to restrain the precursor. A fired body was obtained, heated and pressed under the same high-temperature and high-pressure conditions as in Example 1, and further pitch-impregnated and carbonized in the same manner as in Example 1. Regarding the bulk specific gravity of the material obtained in each treatment step, the bulk specific gravity of the calcined body after constrained firing is 0.25, the porosity is large, and the bulk specific gravity of the C / C composite after heat and pressure treatment is 1 The porosity is 15% and the bulk specific gravity of the pitch impregnated carbonized C / C composite is 1.80.
And the porosity was 10%.
